The article was initially entiteld, "Zane Robertston!!!!" but we changed it to make it more descriptive. Here is our article on his bust and fake excuses (he said he went to a hospital for a COvid-19 vaccine but they gave him EPO instead) which points out that in 2016 he expressed frutation at the amount of doping in the sport:
Another thing worth noting is him complaining about this sport being the only one that cares about doping to this extent. He may be right, but wishing we would let things slide like others is a red flag that suggests he'd reconciled himself to the vice and would have no compunction continuing if he hadn't been caught.
There is a stench coming off these pages. It's called doping denial. And it's coming from deniers of Kenyan doping.
The only stench here is the one left by your rage.
The posters you have been addressing have not denied doping exists in Kenya. Your rage blinds you. This thread is about Zane Robinson, a New Zealander, who doped.
Whether he got the EPO in Ethiopia, in Kenya or in Auckland is irrelevant, because he could get it in any of those places. The relevant part is that he doped, he lied, and we will probably never know where he got the EPO.
He has probably been doping for years and got EPO wherever he went.
You are trying to turn this into a thread about doping in Kenya, and Kenyan dopers. You have plenty of threads for that.
The relevant part is that he has chosen to live and train in Kenya for most of his career, and to dope in Kenya, where it is a common practice in their sport. It is like if a person chooses to try to make a living amongst corruption the chances of their remaining honest will be slim. That is Kenyan running.
Robertson chose to dope. But he chose to dope in one of the easiest countries in the world to dope, where doping has become a common practice. End of story.
You wish that was the end of story. He has probably been doping in different countries.
The easiest country for him to dope in is Kenya. He is just one of many there.
I don't keep a list, Armweakstupid. I simply read the announcements coming out of Kenya on a weekly basis. You obviously don't. There was yet another Kenyan distance runner popped the week before Robertson. It's been a flood that exceeds any other country. Coe has said Kenyans made up 40% of total doping positives in athletics over 2022. They're still at it.
You claimed this year at least two Kenyans were busted per week. This would be 25 at the absolute minimum. So far you mentioned one Kenyan and one from your own country!!
You will never list the names of those 25+ - because you can't. Because you lied. As so often.
The lying is your desperately trying not to acknowledge the extent of Kenyan doping. When it is always raining I don't count the days that it is. That is Kenyan doping.

According to the magazine article linked to previously there are currently 51 Kenyan athletes serving doping viloation suspensions.
The deniers like Armweakstupid ignore the lists of disgrace, of Kenyan doping violations, like those I also posted above. Kenyan doping is a disease - and so is the denial.

And wheres the connection to the from Armstrongliar claimed 25+ Kenyan busts in 2023, Coevett?
There were doping busts virtually every week - or sometimes two weeks, if you are wanting to be excessively particular - in Kenya last year. There have been busts continuing this year - one only a week before this thread - because their doping hasn't suddenly and miraculously stopped. It will continue. But you prefer not to see it - like ignoring someone p*ssing on your shoes in the toilet because you like it and you don't care about keeping your shoes clean. You're ok with Kenyan doping because you won't see it.

You claimed this year 25+ Kenyans have been busted. So far you have mentioned one Kenyan and one New Zealander. So, what's the correct number, Armstronglivs? 3? 5?
You have lied, as usual.
How much more top distance runners are coming from Kenya than from New Zealand? 50 times? 100 times? Anyhow, at the moment the rate of busted New Zealanders in 2023 exceeds the one of Kenyans by some number.

You haven't followed the regular reports of Kenyan doping infractions in the news. They don't get headlines anymore because Kenyan doping is now a given. So you imagine that one of the worst doping nations in 2022 has suddenly desisted with the practice? Kenya was on the verge of an international ban last year. Somehow, New Zealand can't compete with that. Two distance runners busted for doping in its entire sporting history. With Kenya, doping busts have become as continuous as a production line. 50 or so Kenyan athletes are currently serving a ban. If doping busts was a competition Kenya would get the gold.

You always, conveniently, forget to answer the part about how many world class runners Kenya has vs how many from NZ.

How many Kenyan busts this year? You said it's 25+. This is a lie, one of many coming from you. What's the correect number? More than 5?
They don't make the headline anymore? Coevett would link any Kenyan bust 10 minutes after there was some small news about it.
Coevett has alerts set up for any news that mentions Kenya. He once claimed a locust swarm in 2020 would be the thing that ends Kenyan dominance.
Do you know how many Kenyan distance runners were busted in 2023 El K? Armstronglivs claimes it's 25+, but he is a notorious liar and I have not heard many infos about it recently. Maybe you know the answer?

None so far in 2023. All the recent busts are from late 2022.
For people who are mentally or physically unable to use Google. Latest doping list. Plenty O'Kenyans. 70 to 80. Feel free to count them. Many other countries cheat as well. Enjoy.
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Former 800-meter youth world champion Jackline Wambui of Kenya was banned for two years on Wednesday after testing positive for the substance norandrosterone. The 23-year-old…
Kenya's Betty Wilson Lempus has been handed a five-year ban for using the prohibited substance triamcinolone acetonide and tampering with doping control, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) said on Thursday.
There have been probably between 4-7 “new” Kenyan doping suspensions this year. We are a quarter through the year. Most of the infractions date back some months into 2022. A lot of last years action was in the spring and summer, so we will see if deterrence as well as testing last year will make a dent.

A lot of last years action was in the spring and summer, so we will see if deterrence as well as testing last year will make a dent.
For 2023, the AIU website lists 1 decision against Kenyans and the ADAK website lists 8, but as you said, for infractions dating back to 2022, 2021, and even one from 2019.
In 2022, the AIU reported 20 decisions and the ADAK website lists 6 more, again, some for infractions from previous years.
Note while most of these decisions involved banned substances, a few of these are for violations not involving substances, like whereabouts failures, evasion/refusal to give a sample, and violation of participation during prohibition.
Any claim of 2 Kenyans per week, or even 1 Kenyan per week, doesn't seem particularly informed or able to be backed by data. For 2022, it was more like 0.5 Kenyans each week, when combining international and domestic athletes. It may simply seem like more, because sometimes the same name will appear multiple times, as they are provisionally sanctioned, charged, until the first decision -- with each anti-doping milestone making headlines because it is Kenya. For 2023, it is currently 9 Kenyans over 12 weeks, but the announcements come in bursts, so it is too early to tell if their is an increasing or stable or decreasing trend. This is still less than 1 Kenyan per week.
